[yrwtszfz] Book binding for the masses

Does making bookbinding widely and cheaply available to most people radically alter society?  A sturdily bound book is much more difficult to lose than digital information, so allows normal people to archive information for the long term.

Current technologies: Spiral binding and its ilk do not permit writing on the spine.  Those and three ring binders have pages fall out too easily.

I think letter size paper is too large for books.

Probably want a dual physical and digital storage to allow digital advantages like search and ease of copying.  Print QR codes?  Then they need to be scanned.
